Rebel, what file do I go into to do the text replace?  I am not even sure where the resolutions are stored since I usually make all of my changes in MAMEUI32 and then the changes are saved. 

I will heed your warning about the text replace - thanks for the heads up!  

Where is there a list of the suggested resolutions for every game?  Someone once told me where to go, but I have since forgotten.  No fun getting old.

Clicking on 'Help', the question mark at the top, and looking through the file will tell you lots of things about mame and mameui.

Thanks guys, I really appreciate it!

I have identified the resolutions that are funky.  288X240 and 352X256. 

I figured out what I need to change them to in order to make them work.

I downloaded Notepad++.  Rebel, I have never used this before.  Is there some sort of code or plugin that I need to run in order to have it look in all files in the directory and change 352X256 into 321X256?
deano728:
Nevermind,

Clicked on "Search" on the file menu and then "find in files" 

Thanks Rebel!

Now I am stumped again.  I got Notepad ++ to find all of the instances (541), but then I don't know how to replace them.  I see the "replace" tab, but when I click to replace, it says "0 occurrences replaced".  Then when I change back to the find tab, it has a different folder in the directory drop down.  This is frustrating since it identifies all of the ini files that have a resolution my monitor doesn't support but I have no idea how to make it go into all of those files and replace the non-working resolution...

I guess I could try and run the MAME resolution tool, but how do I get rid of resolution settings within ArcadeVGA that my monitor obviously doesn't support?

Thanks!
